Nice man but im currently looking at drop spindles right now, but im wanting to lower my 87 just enough for it not to rub anywhere. Im running 15x8 on 265-70-15. Been really looking at Belltech 3in drop spindles and a DJM 5in flip kit for out back. What do you think, will that clear me from rubbing, what do you think man, really appreciate it

You might get away with those tires on the rear but you will need a 245/60/15 on the front.

Here is my 87 with 3" drop Belltech spindles and one coil cut and flip kit out back. I'm running 8" rallies with 255/70s in all four corners. I do rub on hard dips. You are only dropping it 3" so I'm going to say you'll be alright. At a minimum, you'll rub on hard dips only. Since you already have the tires, just do it. You can always buy shorter tires later. Just my 2 cents.

I really appreciate it man, finally I found someone with the exact drop Im wanting to go for, If you say that I will clear the 3in drop spindles on hard dips then I'll think I'm gonna go for it, Oh and I need to ask, What size and brand flip kit did you buy for your truck, would really be helpfull. Thanks for the response, and Im really diggin that truck

The spindles are Belltech and the flip kit is McGaughy's. I also cut half a coil (sorry, I said one coil before) on the front for a 4" drop. Also had to trim the lower control arm to clear the rallies. Out back the flip kit dropped it 6". I left the stock shocks up front but put shorter shocks out back (sorry don't have the p/n for those). I also took off the bump stop with extender off out back and installed a regular 1 1/2" one from the parts store. If you are going to cut the coils too, you are going to get some rubbing on hard bumps.

Nice, but how exactly do you trim the lower control arm? Sorry but Im 16 with a passion for these squarebodys. Hopefully you can get back to me with more info, would really appreciate it
